Day 21 progesterone

I was on clomid for 2 cycles when I got pregnant, but it ended in miscarriage at 7.5 weeks. I was looking back through my medical records and saw that my day 21 progesterone from that cycle was only 8. This seems very low to me, and I'm wondering if that could have caused the miscarriage. My dr didn't ever mention it to me, just said that I did ovulate that cycle. Should I be worried about low progesterone, and maybe ask for a supplement next time I get pregnant?

I can't speak for your physicians, but I can relate in that I have a borderline low CD21 progesterone of 13 (per my physician). They put me on Prometrium 200mg 2x per day because they wanted to make sure if we do get pregnant on our own, that I don't miscarry. I would definitely address this with your doc to make sure this isn't overlooked.

l would absolutely request a progesterone supplement next time. My RE says that successful ovulations and pregnancies need a progesterone level of 15+ at CD21. Mine was 29 last cycle, but no BFP for me. At 8 being pregnant, DEFINITELY request one and be sure to mention your level of 8 to the doctor when you do!
